    As always great service with a quick turnaround time on our order. Highly recommend the fish tacos and the corn beef and cabbage (St. Patrick’s Day Special). The heated patio is nice.

    The staff was extremely welcoming and attentive. The filet mignon was cooked to perfection. The crème brûlée was also very tasty.

    The restaurant was slammed because it was a surprisingly beautiful evening. The servers and host all seemed stressed. Our food wasn’t quite right and they took $10 off which was a nice gesture but it would have been better if they had offered to fix it

    Delicious food and absolutely outstanding service! Seriously, I can't remember receiving such an excellent service - attentive, precise, efficient. We had water refilled immediately, and without asking, two attentive waiters worked as a team, so we were always taken care of if we needed a wine refill or anything else. It was Michelin star level food and service. Great appetizers with lebaneh. Crabcake was also superb. For the main course, we had seabass and filet mignon and loved both. Very good cocktails. I would only add some interior decorations - that's the only thing I can think of that could be improved. We'll definitely come back to this restaurant.

    Great food and service. The booth we sat in was not as comfortable as it should have been. Next time I'll ask for a table. Overall, it was good.
